Optimus Robots are Impressive

Jalali HartmanPosted oninArtificial Intelligence, Basics of Robotics

The Robotaxi event had an interesting side-effect. The Cybercab and Cybervan had mixed reviews, with Uber, Lyft and Waymo actually getting a boost post event.

We’ll have to wait to see how that race for autonomous taxis plays out.

What was pretty impressive, however, were the Optimus robots mingling amongst the crowds. Even serving gifts and interfacing with the guests with no apparent issues.

Were these remote controlled? Or are humanoids here? Suddenly, we’re not so bored with humanoids.
